Just Ask A Question
If there's something you don't know
That you'd like to learn about
Don't sit and mope all day
I know a real good way
To help you get things figured out
'Cause learnin' stuff
Is not so rough
In fact it's easy if you try
Just ask a question
That starts Where or When
Or Who, How, What or Why
Spoken:
Okay, wanna try?
Prairie Dawn: Okay, ummmm, I got one
Why do flowers bloom in springtime?
Tracy: Because the sun turns warm in May
Elmo: When will Elmo be a grown-up?
Tracy: You're getting older every day
Elmo: Oh good!
Telly: Tracy, how'd you get so smart?
Tracy: Well, you can really learn a lot
By asking questions that start Where or When
Or Who, How, Why or What
Spoken:
Elmo: Hey, Tracy, now you ask some questions
Tracy: Okay
Herry, what's your favorite colour?
Herry: Well, my favorite colour's blue
Tracy: Rosita, what does Tu Ma Gustas mean?
Rosita: It means, I like you
Tracy: Oh, that's nice
And how can you and I
Eat just one piece of pie
All: The best way is to share
Tracy: And why are grouches grouchy?
Oscar: I don't know
And I don't care!
Tracy: A kid's main job is learning
It's your most important task
So don't be too proud
To say out loud
I dont know, but Ill ask.
So look for someone nice
Who'll give you good advice
And when you find 'em
Don't be shy
Just ask a question that starts Where or When
Or Who, How, What or Why
All: Just ask a question that starts Where or When
Or Who, How, What or Why
